+  Icomplete global minor mode provides a convenient way to quickly select an
+element among the possible completions in a minibuffer.  When enabled, typing
+in the minibuffer continuously displays a list of possible completions that
+match the string you have typed.
+
+  At any time, you can type @key{C-j} to select the first completion in
+the list.  So the way to select a particular completion is to make it the
 first in the list.  There are two ways to do this.  You can type more
-of the buffer name and thus narrow down the list, excluding unwanted
-buffers above the desired one.  Alternatively, you can use @kbd{C-s}
-and @kbd{C-r} to rotate the list until the desired buffer is first.
-
-  @key{TAB} while entering the buffer name performs completion on the
-string you have entered, based on the displayed list of buffers.

-  To enable Iswitchb mode, type @kbd{M-x iswitchb-mode}, or customize

+and @kbd{C-,} to rotate the list until the desired buffer is first.
+
+  @key{M-TAB} will select the first completion in the list, like @key{C-j} but
+without exiting the minibuffer, so you can edit it further.  This is typically
+used when entering a file name, where @key{M-TAB} can be used a few times to
